That is absolutely right — and we trust the civilised world will unite behind us.

Both sides of the Commons nodded as Mrs May reeled off the Kremlin’s crimes and aggressions long before the attempted assassinations in Salisbury.

Then Corbyn hideously misjudged the mood, choosing this sombre national moment to advance Labour’s interests.

Putin has 24 hours to explain what happened or 'extensive measures' will be taken against his regime

First, a rant about Russians “funding the Tory Party”. Then some waffle on police and NHS staffing. Then feebly preferring “robust dialogue” to action.

No prizes for guessing why he prefers appeasing Russia.

PM Theresa May confirms that Russia is 'highly likely' to have carried out the attack on former spy Sergei Skripal in Salisbury using military-grade nerve agent

He admires it, as he did the Soviet Union. He still backs its UK-based propaganda station RT. His top aides are Kremlin cheerleaders.

Never has Corbyn sunk lower. His snarky petulance triggered protests from his own backbenches. His front bench slumped in justified shame.

It is now all but confirmed that Russia attempted murders on our soil using an illegal nerve agent. Thank heaven we have a PM who gets how grave that is — not an old fool who’d invite Putin in for a cuppa.

Vince Cable's 'racist' slur against Brexit voters was just clueless

VINCE Cable’s “racist” jibe at Brexit ­voters was clueless, disgusting, ageist, self-defeating and wildly irresponsible.
If he believes the referendum was won by old voters nostalgic for a white Britain he has never troubled himself to learn what motivated 17.4million people.

Lazy insults simply foster hate and harden hearts FOR Brexit.

Fury as Vince Cable claims Brexit voters only want to quit EU so the UK can be whiter

Arguably the Lib Dem leader’s most toxic assertion is that old people’s votes somehow count less than young ­people’s. He cannot believe that tripe.

He is contorting logic to defend his bare-faced U-turn in backing the second referendum he once condemned.
